Thought I might introduce a new game using my recent primes algo's. Start with an easy one, these 2 prime numbers differ by only 1 digit ... can you find the digit that changed (from what to what) and by how much? (can be 1, 2, 3 but <10) For bonus points, can you tell me the position (from left or right)? I call these proximal twins which differ by only 1 number ....

[edit] Fixed an issue with my copy/paste, sorry
Going ballistic with 3 glitches... these 3 primes differ by 1 digit; with these hints ...
prime 1) the change occurs early on
prime 2) this prime contains the only occurrence of this digit in all 3 primes (appears only once)
prime 3) the change is a 9

I just crunch them on Primegrid. I don't know the maths behind them all and there are many different ones. Good on you ryzenmulti - for getting right into it. :congrats :worship
If you want to test any of those numbers yourself, copy and paste them into this website, and press 'Prime'

Here's the answer to the ballistic challenge below - you were looking for a 7, 0 (only occurrence) and 9. Python runs faster on windoze, and can handle integer numbers with 4300 digits, which blows my tiny little mind!! It can do accurate math on numbers far easier and quicker than anything I have used before. So I have created some cool python scripts which do all the hard work while I sleep. My largest twin prime so far is 1299 digits - primes which differ by 2. I've graphed the decrease in the % of prime numbers up to 150 digits to get an idea on how big the search needs to be to find a twin prime. So far at 2048 digits it has taken me 4 days to find a twin. Will post up the answers in each challenge with a link. My scripts can replace digits to make a challenge easy or hard. Swapping out all the zeros and then finding a glitch prime with only 1 zero was interesting.
